This world is full of options. That's a blessing. But some days it doesn't feel like one.
Play dates. Classes. Social groups. Outings. Family gatherings. So many things to do. But how? Are you feeling stressed out by all of the options? Yes, choices are a blessing but when it's play dates, classes, social groups, outings, family gatherings, sports... How do you eliminate the planning stress? When I feel put upon, stressed out, or cornered, I have to remember: What do /I/ want? That changes everything. Instead of feeling like the world is throwing boulders at me that I have to catch or duck lest I get pummeled, instead I remember: I get to choose. And not only that: "Look at how many amazing choice I have!" From there the rest is easy. That's because I've practiced listening to my intuition, and my kids have, too. Intuition is your soul, your Big Guidance, and it never, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever steers you wrong. No competition. No conflict. No fuss. It even does scheduling. I have a 6 month old baby, a 10 year old a daughter and a 6 year old daughter. I have a husband who works from home. I have a big summer ahead of me. What do I want? Ease, of course. Fun, oh heck-yes. Flow... ...YES. I want to be easy. I want it to be in our Highest Good. And I want it to be awesome. So now, from this perspective, nothing seems stressful. Possible sleepover? Trip to Great America? Maybe. If we want. If it is something our Higher Self says "ooooh!" to. And if it is not? There is no pushing. No protecting myself (under the guise of protecting my kids). No guilt for saying "no thank you" and no fear of missing out, doing it wrong, or screwing up. It is just... perfect. As it is. And as it is not. So now: bring it. An email box full of invitations? I can handle it. My soul already knows what my summer looks like, and from that perspective, it is AWE-SOME. Comments are closed.
